Retailer Reviews
Nice and secure.
The Bedhead is easy to install w/o any special tools and it keeps your bike securely in place. While the nut on the skewer does come off, you can make pretty tight with the quick release. It is always good to remember that locks only stop the honest person and if somebody really wants your bike then they will get it.
Locking Bedhead is a Dud
Despite Yakima's claim that this product locks your bike to your truck, the Locking Bedhead does NOT lock nor secure your bike whatsoever. This is truly a case of false advertisement. Any idiot can steal your bike even though it is supposedly locked. No tools or vandalism are needed to steal your bike. The nut can easily be twisted off and the skewer removed even though it is supposedly locked. You might as well purchase the regular Bedhead for $20 less since the locking version really does not provide additional security.
